Galleries now on Fifth Avenue art crawl route

Nathan Crowder's '5h & Broad,' on view at the Tennessee Art League.

The Tennessee Art League's new home at 219 Fifth Ave. N. has been the site of a few galleries over the past few years, including Cheekwood's pop-up gallery last October.

Delineating the Tennessee Art League's distinct galleries doesn't work quite as well here as in the separate rooms of the previous building, but the new location gives the League a prime spot on the monthly downtown art crawl route.

Among the works in the Ethel Smith Gallery's salon-style display is Peach McComb's impressionistic "First Spring Sail," a carefree depiction of boats on a lake, and Mary Fallon's effective use of warm colors to suggest a twinkling skyline in "City in Red and Green."
